I get my peaches down in Georgia!
But what about Georgians… are we searching up peaches as frequently as other states? The answer is actually… no. Georgia’s most-searched fruit isn’t a peach, like our state symbol might suggest. Keep scrolling to learn all about Georgia’s most searched up fruit!
What is Georgia’s most-searched fruit?
Mangoes! Can you believe it? Mangoes are the most-searched fruit in the state, according to a new study conducted by Gourmet Gift Baskets. And Georgia isn’t alone. Mangoes actually top the list in forty of the fifty states.
Was any state’s favorite fruit peaches?
Actually, yes. There was ONE state out of all fifty to search peaches more than the other fruits, and it was… drumroll please… WYOMING!
Were other fruits trending in Georgia?
Yes! Mangoes took the cake for the most-searched fruit in general, but other fruits reigned supreme in other categories.
For ‘the biggest three-month change in search interest,’ or, the ‘trendiest fruit’ cherries took the cake. And for the most popular seasonal fruit, Georgia’s favorite was actually grapes.
Wait, how’d they come up with these stats?
Good question. Gourmet Gift Baskets utilized Google Keyword Planner to see which fruits were being searched up the most. They say,
To avoid over-representing apple searches that might be driven by popular consumer brands (such as Apple Inc.), we combined search data for red apples and green apples into a single “apples” category. By focusing specifically on these common fruit-related phrases, we ensure our analysis accurately reflects interest in apples as a fruit—minimizing distortions from unrelated searches for tech products or other non-fruit meanings. This method helps provide a truer picture of actual consumer search behavior around apples as a food, rather than as a brand.
So head to the store and grab some mangoes, Atlanta. We know you’re searching ’em up!
